I was part of a gb for a 147gr 9mm mold some time back. When I dropped the first pour, I was amazed with the extreme depth of the lube groove. It looked at least twice as I would expect. I found during sizing/lube that I have to crank down on the lube pressurizer more frequently and go through a stick much quicker than with other bullets.
Question is, I am wondering if a competent machinist could use a mill to cut down the lube groove from the end with the halves mated. It would seem to be a simple operation...or should I just live with the extra lube use. Lube is inexpensive and replacing a messed up mold would be more costly.
